SURE TO BE BUILT.
The Birmingham and Atlantic's Bond
Sale Insures It's Completion.

Salo lnSQTeS lCS COLnpl6OlOu.
Maj. J. A. A. West, the General Man
ager of the Birmingham and Atlantic Air
Line, returned to the city from trip over
the road yesterday. He was asked whether
it was true that s6,OO0,0OO of bonds Of
the company had been placed with Euro
pcan syndicate, as reported, and he replied
that he could not say positively
as he had been absent from
the city, and had not been in communica-
ton with New York for nearly week, but
be thought it was true because last Satur-
day he received letter from New York,
which said: Our position now is impregna-
bic, and the road will be built no matter
what happens He was inclined TO think
that the report was true also, because So
OU, 900 was the exact amount of bonds the
company desired to place. He had no idea
what the bonds brought, but he knew that
it must have been par or nearly par, because
they are held by the United States Construc-
ton Company, which will not consider any
proposition that shades par much.
Concerning the work on the road he said
the contractors were using improved ma
chinery, and by that means they were push
Ing ahead much faster than they expected
to. The first fifty miles out of Savannah
will be graded before Oct. /, the time speci-
fled, and IN order that they may not run out
OF work. the contractors have written TO
New York TO ask for ten miles more to work
on while they are negotiating for the next
fifty-mile section.
The first section out of Macon will be
graded in a short while, so by Oct /, 10
miles will be read Y for the ties DIR. West
inspected the work done by Ferguson IL Co.,
for the old Savannah, Dublin and Western
and found it in remarkably good condition.
He expected to find that the rains had
washed gullles and holes in it, but they have
not. Some of the sand has been washed
into the bitches from the sides, but very
little work will clean them out and the bed
will then be in order.

Waiting for Ammunition.

The rifle practice of the Guards has

THE FIR ST SYNOD
OF the Metropolitan See Opened
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-ArchbiShOp Fee
han opened with impressive and impOs-
ing ceremonies this morning the first
synod of the clergy of the archdiocese
which has been held within the metro
pOlitan see. Included within the arch
diocesan jurisdiction are the diocese of
ScOria and Alton, which has been di-
vided during the past year into two sep
arate diOceses. POntifical high mass
was celebrated by the archbishop, as
sisted by Bishop Spalding, of Peoria,
and Vicar General Conway, of Chicago,
for whom it is held in ecclesiastical cir
cles mitre is awaiting, when the con-
clave enters upon the formal business
for which it was convened. Certain
changes in the ecclesiastical government
of the province recommended at the re-
cent council in Baltimore will be pro-
mulgated, advisory members of diocesan
councils appointed and numerous pas
toral changes and appointments will be
made. Additional interest attaches to
the meeting of the synod owing to the
fact that well grounded belief prevails
outside clerical circles that some init
nation will be made to-day by Arch
bishop Feehan to the council concern
ing the rumOred elevation of Vicar Gen
eral Conway to the bishOpric of Spring
field, and also that some one among the
clergy present will be chosen to fill the
vacant episcopal seat at Belleville, o.

Spider had the best of the contest
throughout. Popular opinion might be
said to coincide with this. The articles
read the IMAM having the best of it,"
and the Spider certainly got in the
greater number of blows and inflicted
the greater punishment, besides forcing
the fighting. The custom here has
been, however, to decide draw when
both men are on their feet at the finish
and in condition to continue, provided
the contest was not for points. The ref
cree did not depart from this custom,
and evidently disliked to declare War
rem defeated when the last round was
the best he fought. The outcome will
probably be that the rules will hereafter
be more closely adhered to.

Granville on the Irish Question.

LONDON, Dec. 13.-The cabinet has
decided to reasemble parliament Feb. 7.
The government will try to limit the de-
bate on the address in reply to the
queens speech to one week. Lord
Randolph Churchill, guest of Lord Hart
ington at Hardwick hall, reports they
are comforting as to the best means to
meet the free trade agitation. The
Eighty club gave banquet in honor of
Earl Granville. In speech Granville
contended the reception given Harting-
ton and Goschen in Dublin was no test
of public opinion. DeSertiOns had
not destroyed the Liberal party,
which was endowed with enduring
vitality. Carrying aloft the banner of
progress the Liberals did not wish to
declare that diSsident beyond the pale
of the party. On the contrary. they
wished to bring about reunion, but it
was impossible to achieve reunion by
suspension of the Irish question. Not all
the power of Lord Salisbury and Glad
stone united could do that hear, hear.
If the government undertook to settle
the Irish question upon reasonable ba-
sis of self-gOvernment. they would
have the hearty support Of the Liberals.
1t will be better for the government to
try to settle the Irish question than fol-
low their present course. which tended
to take from the Irish all respect for
the laws.
